Troubleshooting
• If your Food Processor should
fail to operate, check the
following:
– Make sure the work bowl and the
work bowl cover are properly
locked on the base.
– Check that the Food Processor is
plugged into a proper electrical
outlet. If it is, unplug the Food
Processor, then plug it into the
same outlet again. If the Food
Processor still does not work, check
the fuse or circuit breaker on the
electrical circuit the Food Processor
is connected to and make sure the
circuit is closed.
• If your Food Processor shuts off
while it is running:
– The Food Processor may be
overheated. If the motor exceeds a
certain temperature, it will
automatically shut off to prevent
damage. This should be an
extremely rare occurrence. If it
happens, press the Off Button and
wait 15 minutes for the Food
Processor to cool before resuming.
If the Food Processor still refuses to
run, wait an additional 15 minutes
for the Food Processor to cool.
If the problem cannot be corrected
with the steps in this section, see the
KitchenAid Warranty and Service
section on pages 34-35. Do not
return the Food Processor to the
retailer—they do not provide service.
